Chapter 2, Problem 15PP
It is important to consider the effect of thermal expansion when building a structure that must withstand changes in temperature. For example, a metal beam will expand in hot temperatures. The additional stress could cause the structure to fail. Similarly, a material will contract in cold temperatures. The linear change in length of a material if it is allowed to freely expand is described by the following equation:
L Δ=α L 0 T Δ
Here, L0 is the initial length of the material in meters, LΔ is the displacement in meters, TΔ is the change in temperature in Celsius, and a is a coefficient for linear expansion.
Write a program that inputs a, LΔ, and TΔ, then calculates and outputs the linear displacement. If the displacement is positive then output that “The material will expand by” the displacement in meters. If the displacement is negative then output that “The material will contract by” the displacement in meters. You shouldn’t output the displacement as a negative number. Here are some values for a for different materials.

The great circle distance is the distance betweentwo points on the surface of a sphere. Let (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) be the geographicallatitude and longitude of two points. The great circle distance between the twopoints can be computed using the following formula:d = radius X arccos(sin (x1) X sin(x2) + cos(x1) X cos(x2) X cos(y1 - y2))Write a program that prompts the user to enter the latitude and longitude of twopoints on the earth in degrees and displays its great circle distance. The averageradius of the earth is 6,371.01 km. Note you need to convert the degrees into radiansusing the Math.toRadians method since the Java trigonometric methods useradians. The latitude and longitude degrees in the formula are for north and west.Use negative to indicate south and east degrees. Here is a sample run:

- Algorithms Question Three points P, Q, and R are said to be collinear if they are on a single line. To check whether the 3 points lie on the same line, we use the distance formula. If P, Q and R are three collinear points, then: Distance from P to Q + Distance from Q to R = Distance from P to R PQ + QR = PR The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by Hence, we can easily find the distance between the points P, Q and R, with the help of this formula.

- In practical life, the employees get salaries and pay taxes honestly. Sometimes, the process of drawing salariesand payment of taxes may lead to some interesting situation. Suppose, a person draws salary of Rs. 10,000 permonth. A certain percentage of tax is charged on that amount, which is deducted every month. But if the salaryof the person is more than Rs. 10,000 per month, then the tax rate is different. Similarly if a person is getting Rs.20,000 per month, he/she would be charged more under a different tax rate slab. The interesting situationdevelops if there is an anomaly in the tax rates i.e. a person who is getting higher salary takes home lesser moneyas compared to the other person with less gross salary.To further elaborate it, we suppose that there is company 'C' where 100 or less than 100persons are employed. The salaries of the employees and their tax rates are known to us.We are required to list those unlucky persons, who are getting lesser take-home salary(net salary)…arrow_forwardInterest on a credit card’s unpaid balance is calculated using the average daily balance. Suppose that netBalance is the balance shown in the bill, payment is the payment made, d1 is the number of days in the billing cycle, and d2 is the number of days payment is made before billing cycle. Then, the average daily balance is: averageDailyBalance =netBalance x d1-payment x d2d1 If the interest rate per month is, say, 0.0152, then the interest on the unpaid balance is: Interest= averageDailyBalance * 0.0152 Write a program using c++ compiler that accepts as inputnetBalance, payment, d1,d2, and interest rate per month. The program outputs the interest. Format your output to two decimal places.arrow_forwardThe density of an object is 2 g/cm3.
